It was addressed several times but i haven’t seen a convincing answer yet. One problem – and i believe its currently the major one – is “what if i loose access to the domain?” and the general answer was “its as bad as if you loose your github account”. But i don’t believe that, it is worse and a possible security concern. If i loose my github account, i can’t publish any new version of the crate – that’s unfortunate but fine.
Lets imagine i have a domain “usefullstuffforrust.com” and i publish my important “is-even”, “is-odd” … crates here. Now nearly everyone uses my useful crates and they are among the most popular ones but they don’t need much maintenance because the crates are pretty much “done”. So over the years i lost interest in maintaining them but they don’t loose importance to the Rust ecosystem – i stop using and paying for the “usefullstuffforrust.com” so i loose the domain and its open for anybody to pick it up and publish new version of my crates? With added “features” like cryptominers and keyloggers?
